Chapter One: Call of
the Granolith
Liz is sitting down in her favorite chair outside her room
(Voice over)
Two days ago I thought that if I could figure out what
happened to Alex, it would make some other things in my life a little
clearer. I mean if I could find the
answers to one question maybe finding the answers to all of the other ones
wouldn't seem so hopeless because nothing makes sense anymore. I feel like the more I try to figure things
out the more confusing it gets. Now
that I know how Alex died and how Tess betrayed us I'm more confused then
ever. What about the future, now that
Tess is gone, after everything that I gave up, will it still happen? So what's next?
(Fade In) The four aliens and Maria are at the Crashdown,
sitting at their usual corner booth
Maria: What do you
mean you just let her go! You should
have tied her up or used your alien powers or something…
Michael: Lay off
him, she'll be back, probably needed some space,
(Maria cross her arms and gives him a don't mess with me
look)
just get it all out of her system…..
Maria: Ughhhh! There are evil things out there, how could
she just leave without telling me, her best friend….
(Michael grabs her and gives her an awkward hug and pat on
the back)
Max: I thought that
we could start over but that's impossible isn't it?
Isobel: (Puts her hand over his and gives him a reassuring
smile) It was a lot to take in, she just needs some time to think about
everything.
Max, Isabel, and
Michael: (they all said at the same time standing up in unison and
standing absolutely motionless like robots)
We need to go to the Granolith
Maria: (Looking confused)
What?!!!Is your new alien powers telepathy? Maybe you can find Liz with it.
Helloooo anyone home? (She waves her hand in front of Michaels face
Max, Isabel, and Michael:
We need to go to the Granolith, (they all said exactly as before)
Maria: Knock it off
guys, it's beginning to creep me out.
(The Pod squad moves toward the door)
Where are you going?
